Smiling Through the Human
26 March 2024 - Georgia B.
A CABARET ABOUT LIFE AS A NEURODIVERGENT AND MENTALLY ILL YOUNG PERSON, WHICH IS BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN WITH STIRRING MUSIC AND BOTH FUNNY AND MOVING LYRICS. GRACE IS A (SELF-PROCLAIMED) AWKWARD BUT ALSO AMAZING PERFORMER, WITH A STUNNING VOICE AND QUIRKY PHYSICALITY. I PARTICULARLY LOVED THE VERY INTENSE BUT ACCURATE DEPICTION OF ANXIETY/ PANIC ATTACK WHEN TRYING TO ANSWER A PHONE.
